Summary: Adding pronouns to your profile helps colleagues understand how to address you correctly and makes the workplace more inclusive. This guide shows you how to set up or change your pronouns in your personal settings.
Why use pronouns?
Pronouns are a simple way to help colleagues interact with one another respectfully. When you add pronouns to your profile, they appear next to your name throughout the network, so communication stays clear and inclusive across teams.
How to set up your pronouns
If your organization has enabled this feature, you can add or update your pronouns at any time.
- Click your avatar, then the gear wheel (Settings), then Personal Settings.
- Click the General tab.
- Find the Pronouns section.
- Choose your preference:
- Select one of the predefined options (for example he/him, she/her, they/them).
- Select Custom to type your own pronouns if the standard sets do not fit your identity.
- Click Save.
Note: While pronouns may be assigned automatically in some networks, you can always change them manually so they match your personal preference.
Where your pronouns appear
Once saved, your pronouns are visible to everyone in the network in these places:
- On posts: right after your name on Feed posts and comments.
- On your profile: under your name when colleagues view your profile card.
